TEALL: Technology-Enhanced Active Language Learning

Abstract

It is undeniable that technologies have impacted the educational field positively, from the economy to education. Electronic devices such as computers and the Internet have helped educators ease their jobs in educating the learners. ESL learners need to trail the requirement of the global workforce in being proficient in the English language. A few gaps have been identified for other researchers to conduct further study. More empirical evidence is needed to sustain this theory and explore the unknown issues from these research cycles. Hence, this paper aims to discuss the technology used to enhance active learning in the ESL context. This review discusses teaching and learning with technology. Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) and Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) boost students' motivation by integrating audio-visual aids and games. The use of technology in language learning contributes positively to a great learning experience in active English language learning. The technology used is adaptable for students to engage in active learning at any English language proficiency level. Teachers and learners should prepare themselves with various technology learning activities for significant benefits.
